Switch between regional servers

Learn about Smartcats server optimization for enhanced performance, including how your account is assigned to the nearest server, managing multiple regional servers, and easy server switching.

Smartcat uses servers in different locations to optimize performance.

When you create an account, it’s automatically assigned to the server nearest to you. If you are invited to a Smartcat project, your account is automatically created in the project’s geographical zone.

However, you can be connected to several regional servers. This happens if the email you used to create your account is linked to several corporate workspaces on different servers.

What’s the difference? None really. You can work in different regional markets and have clients on different servers. There’s no project or any other sensitive information exchange between the servers.

Switching servers

You’ll see your server in the bottom left corner of the sign-in form. Click on the server name to switch servers.

When you switch between workspaces, the server automatically switches.
